OpEdNews - Diary: Revolutionary Heresy: From Giordano Bruno To Alex Jones ConfusedConfused

Of course the problem being why replace bull crap with more bull crap. AJ is seriously guilty of muddying the pool in so many ways.

Someone should send Ed Encho a PM and ask him to weigh in on this. I'll let him speak for himself.

But to suggest that Alex Jones, even in a the day of the faster, quicker, larger-audience Internet, is in the same league with the likes of Pepper, or Douglass, or Griffin, or Peter Dale Scott, or even the lower tier of luminaries (some of whom post here, more of whom read here), is to inflate Jones beyond reason, or to demean the energies and staggering intellectual, cognitive or courageous attributes of the rare leaders.

It may even cheapen us readers who soon must address slowly-arising threats and dangers.

To suggest that a golden age of truth and liberty is around the corner is wishful thinking; let us all wish in unison, with all our synaptic powers of crystalline realization, or by clicking our heels three times. I hope it works. I doubt it will with Alex Jones in the forefront. A more sobering thought, using our cognitive abilities, may be that that approaching golden age is magical thinking.

The age that approaches will be Dark indeed. If we "conspiracy theorists" wish to see a golden age, we best start planting its seeds in our grandchildren's minds and educational systems.

What Griffin are we talking about here? One of them is an utter fruitbat. Peppers generally good and so is Douglas. I also think you might just wanna have a look at my piece on Jones at CTKA. Im the only JFK person yet to have criticised him indepth in any way practically anywhere. I'm sorry but I'll leave conspiracy theories-theorists and 'Magical Thinking' to the next guy Ed.

Seamus:

1) My response was a response to the piece, not to you or your post.
2) Your piece on Jones at CTKA isn't linked in, so I can't reference it. (Not everyone here is all wound up deeply into things Dallas, and there are other conspiracies, state crimes against democracy, just plain deep political issues, or daily life to be focused on, and, although we try, we can't be everywhere simultaneously and read everything everyone has on every topic.)
3) The Griffin I referenced is Dr. David Ray Griffin. Is he the one you think is an utter fruitbat?

Groovey. I did'nt think it was. But I may have come across as a little grumpier than I first thought. My apologies.

I never said anyone needs to be 'tied up in Dallas' or anything of the sort.
anyhoot here's my AJ piece. I might need to update it as Bermas no longer works with him.

No the fruitbat I was thinking of was Ed Griffin. Check him out you'll see cause for concern. You see Socialists and Bankers run the world. And yes Noah's Ark actually exists. I used to have a better run down on him but the Wiki link (they suck really but I'm being lazy) I hope this will suffice.

Seamus: Your grump was probably my deficiency. I am still learning to understand and interpret trans-global posting between the lines, as intent of humor, sarcasm, etc. don't carry that far. Do I get that you are from New Zealand, via Ireland? Either way, top of the dateline to you.

Thanks for linking in your piece; gosh, it comes in two parts and covers everything except the price of milk, but I've bookmarked it for later consumption.

As for Ed Griffin, yes, indeed, he is a character, but I would not call him an utter fruitbat. Yes, he has his warts, if he is a John Birch society member and promotes laetrile. But I just watched the Burzynski movie recently and know someone battling recurrent cancer, and have serious questions about the medical establishment's approach to a lot of things. She's something of an expert on evidence-based medicine and so she doesn't take laetrile.

And I share Griffin's concern with the Fed and its history. Here in the States, we can no longer afford the interest rates....

As for Noah's Ark, that doesn't strike me as a matter of much precedence in terms of investigation, or in terms of judging someone's validity or veracity. But judging by what is going on out in the heartland here, we may need to finally agree on the length of a cubit.

Lol its all good mate. Love the 'top of the date line' call. Yes, Kiwi of considerable Irish Ancestory. I traced my lineage back to a Potato (which might make me part Sth American in reality) and a crate of whisky. Lol.

In fact Griffin did an interesting piece on Kennedy and the Fed I read ages ago. Which I have to get back too. I'm a bit miffed with religious overtones at the moment. My tolerance is a little frayed as I've just been going through some UFO stuff and the madness I've encountered mate well, lets just say I've come across a UFO crash and get this the Aliens were carrying a Hebrew Bible. You wouldn't read about it mate......well it seems the Aliens have.
